Spermidine-mediated hypusination of translation factor EIF5A improves mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation and prevents non-alcoholic steatohepatitis progression

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Spermidine is a natural polyamine that has health benefits and extends life span in several species. Deoxyhypusine synthase (DHPS) and deoxyhypusine hydroxylase (DOHH) are key enzymes that utilize spermidine to catalyze the post-translational ...

Identification of Trypanosoma cruzi Polyamine Transport Inhibitors by Computational Drug Repurposing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Trypanosoma cruzi is the causative agent of Chagas disease, a parasitic infection endemic in Latin America. In T. cruzi the transport of polyamines is essential because this organism is unable to synthesize these compounds de novo.

Ionic current inversion in pressure-driven polymer translocation through nanopores [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We predict streaming current inversion with multivalent counterions in hydrodynamically driven polymer translocation events from a correlation-corrected charge transport theory including charge fluctuations around mean-field electrostatics.

Protective Role of Spermidine in Colitis and Colon Carcinogenesis.

open access: yesGastroenterology, 2021
BACKGROUND & AIMS Because inflammatory bowel disease is increasing worldwide and can lead to colitis-associated carcinoma (CAC), new interventions are needed. We have shown that spermine oxidase (SMOX), which generates spermidine (Spd), regulates colitis.

DNA sensing by electrocatalysis with hemoglobin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Electrocatalysis offers a means of electrochemical signal amplification, yet in DNA-based sensors, electrocatalysis has required high-density DNA films and strict assembly and passivation conditions.
